What is the dosage that might be toxic? My female doctor recommended I use
black cohosh. It does seem to have lessened symptoms for me and I'm the
kind that "Murphy" dictates "If there can be any adverse reaction, Bonnie
will have it." LOL!!! Thus far, I haven't noticed it interacting with the
many medications I take either.
Blessings,
Bonnie (SW OH-zone 5)

Fran - black cohosh - great stuff. It's helping me through the
perimenopausal stage. Been in that for 5 years. Wish it would just quit
already but I'm only 46. Brother.
